Junior embassy employee taped badmouthing British ministers

Ambassador to Britain Mark Regev apologized for the undiplomatic comments made by a junior embassy staff member regarding how to “take down” anti-Israeli MPs, including deputy Foreign Office minister Alan Duncan.

“The embassy of Israel rejects the remarks concerning Minister Duncan, which are completely unacceptable,” a statement issued by the embassy on Sunday stated. “The comments were made by a junior embassy employee who is not an Israeli diplomat, and who will be ending his term of employment shortly.”
